Star icon appears then disappears
-
I keep seeing a little blue star icon thingy
<i class="fa fa-star"></i>appear in topics next to my post, then it disappears. Why does it do that? -
Its the new bookmark animation, letting you know the post that you've ajaxified to via the various scroll-to-post features
It's a complement to the blue underline on the bottom of that post

@psychobunny thanks for letting me know. Sounds like a cool feature
-
@psychobunny was thinking about the use of a star, it feels like I've favourited something. How about use something like the bookmark icon instead?

Makes sense

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I saw the star, was confused thinking I had favorited it somehow, and then it faded. I then proceeded to say "ooohhhhh" as a wave of understanding washed over me.

@baris made the change, looks much better IMO

@psychobunny looks good to me!
Is it right that I see the bookmark icon when I'm logged out as well?
-
@henrywright if you're logged out, bookmarks are saved in the browser's local storage, so anonymous users get their place saved as well (this has been the case for a while, but as of a few months ago bookmarks are linked to your username)

@BDHarrington7 Thanks for the info!
